* Analyzes the alarming European demographic trends: aging
populations; shrinking families; dropping fertility rates; and mass
migration* Presents the potential ramifications for pensions,
health, housing, transport, the family unit, and more in over 100
tables and graphs along with a full discussion* From a team led by
acclaimed demographer Wolfgang Lutz, this is the culmination of
five years of research by the European Observatory on the Social
Situation, Demography and FamilyEurope's future will be built by
its citizens, but who will those citizens be? How numerous, how
healthy, how long-lived? How many children will they have? What
kind of families will they live in, and what are the main
challenges to their social cohesion? These are the questions that
"The New Generations of Europeans" sets out to answer. Edited by
leading demographers at the International Institute for Applied
Systems Analysis, and made up of contributions from respected
researchers in the fields of population and society, it assesses
what it is to be a citizen of a growing EU and what important
issues will have to be faced if Europe as a collective notion is to
survive. Taking in fertility, family, ageing, health, immigration,
and more, and always considering the situation in, and impact of,
the new member states, the book draws on the latest in demographic,
economic, and social research to provide an intriguing coverage of
the state of the people of Europe today and tomorrow. Crucially,
the question of how changes in this state will impact the
socio-economic infrastructure (e.g. medical facilities, transport,
food provision, etc.) is also addressed.
